Me, too. While I have no wish to compromise national security, I have to admit there are many secrets held by Uncle Sam that I’d love to know. I’d keep them to myself, of course!

Sorry to rain on the conspiracy parade, but the symbol of the pyramid is totally Biblical in nature. The Great Pyramid is often referred to as the "Bible in Stone". Christ is the missing capstone, or cornerstone. I believe the capstone will be restored during the millennium. The eye is the all seeing eye of God. There are amazing scientific, geographic, and biblical discoveries in it. For an introduction on the real story of the Great Pyramid go here: Great Pyramid

The authors of this article are not saying anything about any conspiracy. They are saying that the commemorative patches designed for various U.S. national security space missions contain clues to the function and capabilities of the spacecraft involved in each mission.

You need to read the article. It’s clever and cool...no conspiracy theories.

Sorry to rain on the conspiracy parade, but the symbol of the pyramid is totally Biblical in nature.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The pyramid with the all seeing eye is many things to many people. I am afraid you cannot claim sole ownership of it. The Egyptians had it long before Christianity existed, as the Great Pyramid at Giza had at its top a golden cap, which reflected the sun as the all seeing eye of Ammon Ra.

You can claim it for Christianity if you want, but the Egyptians and their masons created the pyramid after which all other traditions today claim that symbol, and all of them quite rightly, as it basically has the same meaning in all traditions.

Freemasonry is descended from ancient operative masonry, and the pyramid and the eye of providence have come down to them too, along with many other symbols from that time.

Those symbols have been used and abused for centuries, by conspiracy theorists, especially in various churches. Now they are used and abused by the movie industry. Those symbols delineate a spiritual path and fraternity between all men. They were never meant to be bandied about in movie theaters, but such is the curiosity of modern mankind.

It turns out that another patch similar to this was produced some time ago, apparently for the launch of the seventh SDS satellite, placed into a Molniya orbit by a Titan 34D rocket in February 1987. That patch features the lettering “OD-4/DH” and the words “C’Mon Seven.” The “OD-4” stands for “Operating Division 4” of the Satellite Tracking Center that used to operate in the famous “blue cube” in Sunnyvale, California. The meaning of “DH” remains unknown. This indicates that the patch probably was not produced for a launch crew, but rather for an operations team involved with checking out the satellite after launch.

DH = DUNCAN HUNTER!!!

*PING* !!!

the hero travels around the world to decipher clues leading to a city of gold underneath Mount Rushmore.

Should I be P'OD because you spoiled a movie I havn't seen yet?

Maybe you should've placed a SPOILER ALERT! Just Damn...
Thanks alot..

At the bottom of the patch was the phrase “We Own The Night,”

This phrase was also used by one of the FLIR System manufacturers, either Hughes or Westinghouse (Falcon Knight), at one time.

You gotta wonder why those “owl eyes” can’t find Osama...

One point the authors missed was that the owl is also the symbol of Athena, goddess of wisdom and valor — a good symbol for military intelligence.

[TChris]

You gotta wonder why those “owl eyes” can’t find Osama...

Because he's dead.

[B-Chan]

Then where’s the body? If OBL is dead, surely the Pentagon would have shown us the corpse, or at least dental remains, skin fragments, scorched bits of skin, or something.

Maybe these satellites are being held in reserve for a bigger conflict.
